A few people did call in sick, in August 1979. One even got it approved and received sick benefits. But it wasn't the main part of the protest.

I love a good offensive joke as much as the next guy, but it’s mostly the same ignorant old cheap shots when it comes to racist jokes. Hurr durr I know the bike thief was black because he left watermelon and fried chicken on the ground. Ok grampa time for your walk.

I’m apple-less. But I can’t picture you shaming me.

Mogadishu has tried increasing tourism for years but no one wants to visit.

It could be because you would immediately get robbed, raped and killed as a tourist there, but what would I know.

Edit: why does it not turn into asterisks for me?

I can't visualize a tetris block, much less a whole tetris game. I think I could draw all the tetris blocks if I tried so the information is there, just not stored as jpg. More like a zipped text file.

I have been using catchall on my domain since 2002. I have never told anyone any of my real accounts. When I have to send an email, I just add that account (change@ whatever), send the e-mail and delete the account afterwards, rebanishing the company to my catchall. I’ve had it scripted for ages.

When I do get an unsolicited email from let’s say ShittyCompany Inc, I set up a rule to forward all incoming shittycompany@(mydomain) emails to info@ shittycompany. This way they just spam themselves. Takes 2 seconds to run the script and I never see emails from shittycompany again.

In Sweden we have a choice of Dexamfetamine, Lisdexamfetamine, Methylphenidate and Atomoxetine. Diagnosis is $30 and medication cost is capped at $200/yr. American refugees welcome.

Spotted the <30yo. Just you wait. I have tweaked my back from lifting a milk carton the wrong way.

Zebras are evil though

Heh. AI Gore. My font doesn’t differ on l and I.

When I was 6, I spent an entire year completing this game. I had about an hour of playtime every day and no access to any walkthroughs or guides. Also I didn't speak a word of English. It's one of my favorite childhood memories.

And hectograms. We just shorten it to ”hekto” though. It’s how we buy stuff from the deli. ”2 hekto salami please”.

I still have to think twice when someone says something about single digit hours and somehow mean afternoon. We even have an expression in my language for the nightly hours after midnight, they are called ”little hours”.

My TV has never been near any Internet connection. The source button on the remote has been clicked once, the color settings has been changed once. The only button in regular use is the on/off button. This is the way.

Bassett's Wine Gums. After Eight. Had they only been discontinued, I would be almost fine with it. But the packages are still in the stores, filled with off-brand weak copies of the original products. Fuck Mondelez and Nestlé and everything they stand for. Not just because of this, but especially because of this.

Spotify still has done nothing about their audio quality. I use it where I don’t have access to decent playback equipment.

Put in the R airpod and start a random SEA video on Youtube (Friendly+ app) on 0.75x speed, adjusting the volume to just barely drowning out the tinnitus. Gets me to sleep within 5 minutes every night.

Holy shit haha!

I don’t know the specifics and I love animals as well, but I think as a porcelain rat dog™️ owner with a rottweiler neighbour, you should anticipate some risk and act accordingly. Big dogs killing the shit out of rat sized dogs by little more than a growl is very common after all.

A castle built in 1526. It’s still in use, but it’s a museum and restaurant now.

Sadly he died again

Very high is the maximum, that’s what I use. The same songs in 128kbps mp3 sound much better even in my crappy airpods, not to mention lossless files. My speakers give me a Bose soundbar experience when playing Spotify on them.

Law enforcement, digital forensics. Not in the US.

So you don’t use medical services? You just said you do, but you pay for them yourself.

Why should you pay for firefighters putting out other people’s fires?

How is that even similar?

Saab 9-3 Aero was peak car. I get 25-30C summers and -5-+5C winters. Not too different from you, but I usually get snow a couple of random days each winter. Days are short in winter though.

Oh and my very average 1500 sqft house is 10 minutes from a major city center and cost me $300k. How does that compare?

Yes but only to people who lack doors, so you can’t knock anywhere and go out of business.

So they put on bikini tops for the photos?

Yes, potentially. It’s still going strong after 22+ years of me doing this though.

In most cars, the accelerator is easier to press down fully than the brake pedal. Apply the same force required to floor it to the brake pedal (or even double) and the car will go.

So door-to-door salesman?

Does anyone sell KAB where you live? They are the absolute best, 24h-certified chairs money can buy. I have a Director at home and a K4 at work and I would not trade them for anything.

Director is around €1400 if I remember correctly.

Do you think you should pay taxes for firefighters? If so, what’s the difference in your opinion?
